Akki's new look angers Sikhs!

Akshay Kumar is in trouble for his Sikh look in Vipul Shah's film Singh Is King.

From the time the first promotional still of the film was released, there have been voices of dissent over Akshay's look in the film. The clean-shaven face under a trendy turban did not really make Akshay look like a true Singh.

And now, another photograph of Akshay from the film's sets in Australia has met with objections. The image was reportedly taken by the paparazzi and posted on the Internet.

Locals from Punjabi community in Australia have particularly expressed their displeasure over the way Akshay is wearing a turban in the photo.

However, director Vipul Shah insists that the photo does not depict Akki's real look in the film. It was taken without permission.

Shah says Akshay is himself a Punjabi and is working in close coordination with stylist Shabina Khan for his look in the film. Apart from this, a local Sikh is always on the sets to guide Akshay about how to wear a turban.

Vipul also makes it clear that his film does not ridicule any community. Rather, it shows Sikhs as the brave and courageous people.

sometimes I feel really bad when ppl oppose something they are not clear abt. Film's name clearly shows that its gonna show Sikhs as Courageous community , when I first time heard movie's name " Singh Is King" I felt soo proud and I m keenly waiting for this movie.Akshay himself is a Punjabi and we can trust him that he can never do anything that is not in favour of Sikhs and Punjab.

Its not good to oppose it after seeing only one or two posters or promo. I dont know why some ppl dont understand it, may they do this to get publicity or something, bcz I dont find anything wrong even if he is wearing turban in shaven look.

Why dont they spend their time in Promoting our religion , its education in the world Instead of opposing baseless issues .

@ Rajeev Ki Heer: I totally agree with what you have written but IT IS wrong to promote the turban with a shaven look from the religious point of view so we gotta understand that too😳 but I whole-heartdley agree with everything else you have written👏 specially abt educating others on our religion😃

I know its wrong but if its gonna show Sikhs as brave community in the world then I think its can be acceptable . bcz our religious leaders are busy in fighting for kursi, they dont care where our religion is going , young generation is busy in ruining their hair, our one of the respected symbol. So if some one presenting us as " Kings" in the world (that we are😃), even if in shaven look i feel its fine, bcz all know Sikhs have beard and Turban together and its just a movie so Akshay doesnt have😃

I m soo proud of this Movies name😳 , Singh is King , soo excited 😃

Interesting article. Hope Akshay does grow a beard or uses one if he's wearing a pagg cause I am sure that being clean shaven and wearing a pagg will upset even more punjabi people around the world if the film shows Akshay like that. But glad to see a movie that will portray Sikhs as courageous people. 😛
